1.1.1
Principles of Operation
The incoming gas flows through orifices and is mixed with air in the burners to create the correct
ratio for proper combustion. The mixture is ignited at the front end of each heat tube by the pilot
light. Internal diffusers slow the flame as it goes through the burner tube. This slow, turbulent
flame increases heat transfer to the walls of the tubes to heat the oil more efficiently.
This appliance is only for professional use and shall be used by qualified personnel only, as
defined in Section 1.6.
